The Calvert Trust 1976年3月成立,現在在英格蘭有三處中心

Our History

The Calvert Trust came in to existence as a charity on 12th March 1976; this is the date that Lake District Calvert Trust was first registered as a charity. The Calvert Trust is the inspiration of John Fryer-Spedding, whose vision was to enable people with disabilities to benefit from outdoor activities in the countryside.
Despite Harold McMillan stating that the National Parks are "for all people for all time” in 1951 when the first Park opened, John Fryer-Spedding realised this was not quite true, and that a lack of accessible facilities restricted people with disabilities from truly enjoying our beautiful countryside and benefiting from outdoor activity.

林家成新增了 2 張相片 — 覺得很有成就感──和 C.j. Tsao

從踏入社會,四十多年來,到各個不同類型的博物館、美術館參觀,成為我人生學習的重要課程。

能邀請《奇美博物館》作者曹欽榮先生到「信義書局」的「文化講座」演講「博物館的時代精神」,是一種莫大的榮幸。

二個小時的演講,從世界各地的博物館談到許文龍先生從企業家成立了「奇美博物館」襟懐,令人佩服。

會後我以自書的毛筆字「仰觀泰山知羣山之卑,臨視北海知眾流之小」致贈曹欽榮先生,感謝這一場演講,讓我們更深刻了解博物館的時代精神,以及一個有良知的企業家對社會所應扮演的角色!

From flying in World War II to collecting priceless works of art, Henry Bloch has had an amazing life. We are so fortunate.

Henry Bloch, co-founder of H&R Bloch and one of Kansas City’s most notable philanthropists, talks about some of his favorite things and one thing he does for fun.
KANSASCITY.COM


Q: You’ve donated your Impressionist paintings to the Nelson to hang in gallery space that is under renovation. But it appears they’re all still here on your walls.
A: See these pictures here? Know what they’re worth? They’re worth maybe a dollar each. These are copies. The Nelson did this for me. These are photographs, but more than photographs. I don’t know how they did this. They have no value. I used to close draperies because the sun is so bad for paintings. But the man at the Nelson said let it go. You can touch them if you want. We’ll get you a new one. These have no value. It was time to give the paintings. They have them there now.
(Note: The Nelson’s new Impressionist galleries, including the Bloch collection, will open to the public in March 2017.)
Q: Among all the masterpieces you’ve purchased and given to the Nelson, will you admit to a favorite?
A: It’s a Sisley, Alfred Sisley. (The copy) is on my second floor. There’s a story behind it. After I bought it, I said I just don’t like that picture. We used to have it down here but we moved it upstairs. We kept the best pictures downstairs. We had the head of Sotheby’s here from London. I asked him, I bought this picture but I just don’t like it. What’s wrong with it? He said it’s a wonderful picture. There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s the frame. It needs a new frame. Frames are very important. After I got a new frame now it’s my favorite picture. It’s not the most valuable. But it’s a beautiful picture.
Q: What’s the first thing you want a visitor to Kansas City to see?
A: I made a list because it’s hard to pick one. First, I’d say the Nelson. Then I wrote down the World War I Museum at Liberty Memorial. Well, those two. That’s it. They are wonderful.

家樂福基金會捐助續食餐廳「書屋花甲」

「為了減少食物浪費,量販店龍頭家樂福與台北市臻佶祥社會服務協會合作,在北市南機場社區創辦全台第一家續食餐廳「書屋花甲」,今日開始營運,食材主要來自賣場的即期品或賣相不佳的蔬果,並以每份20元的續食料理提供給弱勢族群;此外,餐廳門口還設置一台「社區分享冰箱」,24小時免費提供自行取用食物。家樂福預計,年底將增加至10家分店捐贈食材。
......
臻佶祥社會服務協會理事長方荷生表示,協會每天需準備超過150人份的量,提供給弱勢族群,因此需要足夠且大量的食材補給,透過家樂福基金會輔導捐助成立的書屋花甲,將從上午9時營業至晚上9時,以每份20元的續食料理提供給低收入戶者,每日菜單都不一樣,開幕首日提供生菜沙拉、麵包、青菜和濃湯,店內僱用人手也以弱勢族群為主,提供其學習一技之長。」

Key Related Ideas
Accountability refers ethical and dependable actions of an individual's actions or organization. The term is usually used in the nonprofit sector to refer to the responsibility of a nonprofit organization to inform donors of the manner in which their gifts were used by the organization.  
Ethics is a system or code of conduct based on universal moral duties and obligations for individual and organizational behavior. It deals with the ability to distinguish good from evil, right from wrong, and propriety from impropriety.
Public Trust refers to citizens' expectations of an organization and their representatives to operate in a transparent and ethical manner.
Responsibility refers to tasks clearly defined in organizational policies, designated by position.
Transparency involves sharing information and acting in an open manner. Transparency allows stakeholders to gather information that may be critical to uncovering abuses and defending their interests. Transparent systems have clear procedures for public decision-making and open channels of communication between stakeholders and officials; transparency makes a wide range of information accessible.
Important People Related to the Topic
  • John Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919): Carnegie, one of the greatest philanthropists, stated publicly that the rich have a moral obligation to give away their fortunes. In 1889, he wrote The Gospel of Wealth , asserting that all personal wealth beyond a family's necessity should be regarded as a trust fund to be he benefit of the community (Grimm 2002).
  • John D. Rockefeller (1839-1937): Rockefeller, acquiring great wealth from oil refining and railroads, was the cornerstone for perhaps America's greatest philanthropic family. Continuing today through the fifth generation, he imparted values in the responsibility to be active in efforts to promote human welfare (ibid.).
  • Julius Rosenwald (1862-1932): Rosenwald, a well-known Chicago businessman, created and was active in the Rosenwald Fund. The Fund is best known for its contributions to the education and health of African Americans (ibid.).
  • Margaret Olivia Slocum Sage (1828-1918): Sage is considered to be one of the greatest female philanthropists of her time, giving to many women's organizations. Over an eleven-year period, she donated virtually all of the $75 million dollar fortune her husband had bequeathed to her (ibid.).
Related Nonprofit Organizations
  • The Council on Foundations is a nonprofit membership association of grantmaking foundations and corporations, addressing issues important to its members and to the whole nonprofit sector. The Council helps foundation staff, trustees and board members in their grantmaking and managing activities. Services provided by Council include one-to-one technical assistance, research, publications, conferences and workshops, legal services, and more ( http://www.cof.org ).
  • Independent Sector is nonpartisan coalition of many of " the nation's leading foundations, prominent and far-reaching nonprofits of all sizes, which represent thousands of organizations and millions of volunteers, donors, and people served" ( http://www.independentsector.org ).
  • The United Way of America is a large and important actor in the area of private philanthropy, consisting of approximately 1,400 community-based, independent, separately incorporated and locally governed United Way organizations. "UWA leads the movement through public relations, national brand advertising, the NFL partnership and the management of relationships with national corporate and philanthropic partners and the federal government" (United Way of America). UWA also offers training, consultation, mediation, conferencing, national research and support services to local United Way chapters. United Way funding is considered very valuable by nonprofit grantees because it may cover operational activities ( http://national.unitedway.org ).
